Portrait

on BBC Two England

A series of five portraits. Billy Connolly painted by Alexander Goudie
Scene: A Glasgow studio, where a dedicated artist is attempting to capture the Big Yin's likeness. The artist has tears in his eyes.
GOUDIE: Has anyone ever painted a portrait under such difficult circumstances?
CONNOLLY: I don't know about that, but I paid £400 for this guitar and you leave it looking like a Japanese copy of an orange box.
